Blue Dream is a 68-minute suite of music written by Australian composer and pianist Fiona Joy Hawkins, produced by Grammy winner Will Ackerman (founder of Windham Hill Records) and recorded at Imaginary Road Studios on a Steinway. Featuring guest performances by Luka Bloom, this album goes from quiet contemplative piano to full orchestral, to world sounds, rhythms, jazz influences and back again to the perfect "Bach" moment - all in a breath. Blue Dream crosses from contemporary classical to world fusion, jazz and new age.

"Fiona Joy Hawkins plays with great imagination and beauty. Every measure of this sensitive recording is carefully considered. It takes the listener on a wonderful journey." - Bob Ludwig, Gateway Mastering

"An exquisitely captivating musical journey from start to finish. Vibrant, sensual, haunting. Blue Dream is an unforgettable magic carpet ride into the heavens. I am so proud to have been a part of Fiona's special world." - T-Bone Wolk, producer/arranger
